     This is a very interesting hand from the Saturday Afternoon
pair game at the Rock and Roll Regional Bridge Tournament in
Independence, Ohio.  
     While the South hand contains only fifteen high card points,
it is essentially a three loser hand.  Very little is required
from partner for this hand to produce a slam. 
     South's auction shows a very good hand.  Three clubs is a
game try.  When North elects to pass over West's double, he is 
saying that he would not have bid the game had West passed.  
      East jumps to four hearts in an attempt to keep South
out of game, but South was not to be denied.  Four spades
became the final contract.
     The ace of hearts was trumped and a small club was led as
declarer tried to enter dummy to take the spade finesse. 
West trumped with the two of spades and led the seven of
diamonds.  A low diamond was played from dummy.  East won the
ace.  At this point, there was no way to deny West two more spade
tricks and the contract was down one for minus fifty.
     The result was certainly depressing, but every other North-
South pair had to contend with the same cards.  The match point
score for minus fifty was nine and a half.  Well above average. 
Many other pairs faced additional competitive bidding and the
scores ranged from minus two thousand to plus five hundred
ninety.  
     When you make a game try and then go to game in spite of
your partner's response, your game try was actually a slam try. 
This is a good sequence to discuss - partnerships should be on 
the same page when hands like these come up.
